April 10, 2018

Is it pathetic that all day yesterday I was sad to not be at work at CCS?? So nice to be back and feeling better today :)

STEAM was a lot of fun today! Although I am not sure everyone knew that the objective was for the egg shell NOT to crack rather than to crack hehe.

Our prayers and talks regarding the Humbolt Broncos bus crash was good today. For those interested in becoming Organ Donors after hearing about the player that saved 6 lives through his donation of organs that website again is http://www.transplant.bc.ca/our-services/organ-donor-registry/
We will also have a jersey day this Thursday in support of our victims.

Our retreat with NET ministries is fast approaching! Students should arrive at the parish centre at 8.45am this Saturday. You should wear your own clothes and bring a lunch and water bottle (snacks provided). We will then proceed to the Precious Blood 4.30pm mass where you will join your families and sponsors (if they can make it). During the mass Fr. Paul will call Confirmation candidates forward to sign a Contract of Investiture/partake in Rite of Enrollment. Parents and sponsors will be asked to stand also. This is the same day as the Gala auction (sorry!). We should be out at about 5.30pm so that you can get on your way to the auction night!

April 3, 2017

Soooooo... March just came and went in a flash! Is it any wonder I have not posted on my blog since the end of February?!

HAPPY EASTER TO YOU ALL!!!!

I wish to again commend you all for your work in our live Stations of the Cross on Holy Thursday. You performed reverently and lots of effort in directing and preparing happened. Despite the weather, you all continued to poor your hearts into this production, which was plain for all to see. Thank you all.

As we enter into the final three months of your grade 7 year, we have so much to look forward to! Girls soccer games are going on and the track season is almost upon us.
Our Confirmation retreat and Enrollment/Investiture Mass are coming up on April 14th.
Confirmation will be here before we know it- June 19th.
Grade 7 Farewell night is set for June 26.
Fun Day, Talent Show, Yearbooks, Year-End slideshow...the list goes on!! :)

It is going to fly by, so take it all in! One way you can help make all these experiences as magical as they ought to be, is by working on how you socialize with your classmates. How do you wish to be remembered? What kind of a legacy will you leave behind? Consider this in light of Mr. Borkowski's conversation today about gossiping and rumours....

I am so looking forward to our last three months together. Thank you for letting me take this journey together with you all :)
